Lost and found is my eureka! blog, my rediscovery of my short fiction and poetry submissions published in literary magazines and university literary journals some decades ago. Interspersed, occasionally, with more recent, hitherto unpublished pieces.
The old engineering marvel, that five-span bridge of hand-hewn granite ceaselessly ferries present-day conveyances over the raging torrents of river, that in spring eddies and foams and drags down the unwary and the unfortunate to death's cold, wet arms in its watery depths.
Innocent in late summer, the great stretches of limestone shelves glaring bone-white in full light of day the river languorously passing over its rapids, no threat to those who fish its abundant depths, taking little notice of warning signs, circling gulls crying the anguish of departed souls.
